Hi tazthecat, can you please run the command:
apport-collect 368081
Ideally this command should be run straight after the crash happens because then there is still a record of the crash in the xorg.log file. In most cases it will also work fine to run it on the first login after the crash but the best thing is to login from another machine using ssh while the crashed machine is still at the GDM login prompt.
Anyway, even if you rebooted several times already please run the above command so we can see what hardware you have and sort the bug properly. Thanks.
